Missionary clears quarantine, visits Ebola-infected wife

ATLANTA, GA. — Missionary David Writebol cleared quarantine and visited his wife Nancy who is being treated for Ebola at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, according to WSOC.

David Writebol issued a statement Monday saying he and Nancy are very grateful for the outpouring of prayers and well-wishes.

Writebol shows no symptoms of Ebola after completing the 21-day medical monitoring period that is mandated by local and state public health authorities. He was then able to travel to Atlanta to be with his wife.

“I have had the great joy to be able to look through the isolation room glass and see my beautiful wife again. We both placed our hands on opposite sides of the glass, moved with tears to look at each other again,” Writebol said.
